Married? Check. Happy? Completely. Ideal weight? So begins the journey...

We remember our pre-wedding selves like a distant memory. Constant workouts, the ability to avoid The Flying Cupcake, and a gown that zipped. Now that we've tied the knot, the pressure's off. But we're still eating like we're on our honeymoon. Let's take the journey back to health together...and enjoy some indulgences along the way.

Will Work Out for Wine

I love the barter system, especially when it comes to alcohol.  Thanks to the nifty spreadsheet, I can see that I'm getting close to my daily calorie allotment.  What's a wino to do?  Work out, of course!  What's that, you say? I don't have 160 calories left to enjoy 2 glasses of wine?  Guess it's time to get my butt on the stationary bike for 20 minutes. I think it's a pretty good tradeoff--I donate my body to fitness for 20 minutes, and in exchange I get to leisurely enjoy some wine while watching Top Chef and Work of Art on the DVR.

And sometimes after I work out I'm so desperate for ice water that I no longer crave the wine.

Sometimes.

    Ha! Totally agreed, Emily. Wine is a definite motivator for me. And it feels so good to know you're indulging guilt-free!
